Tutu Tuesday in South Qu'Appelle, Saskatchewan #tututuesday

Hey there, dance lovers! It's your favourite fashion-forward ballerina, back with another dose of tutu inspiration, straight from the heart of Saskatchewan. This week, I'm taking #tututuesday to the prairies, trading city streets for rolling fields and exchanging big city hustle for a little bit of prairie peace. And let me tell you, there's no place quite like South Qu'Appelle for a little tutu magic.

This small town, nestled in the heart of Saskatchewan, has a special charm, and the locals, bless their hearts, have been embracing my #tututuesday adventures with open arms (and maybe a few bewildered looks, but hey, who's complaining!). Now, you might think Saskatchewan isn't exactly the fashion capital of the world (or even Canada, for that matter!), but you'd be surprised by the hidden sartorial gems lurking amongst the canola fields. And trust me, a tutu is just the ticket for a stylish spin on rural chic.

My mission this week? To show the world that tutu fashion isn't confined to the stage or city sidewalks. This tutu Tuesday, we're going for a little prairie flair with a sprinkle of whimsical style, a blend of vintage charm, and a dash of prairie girl spirit. Think: lace-trimmed tutus in dusty rose hues, reminiscent of the wildflowers dotting the prairie landscapes, paired with rustic leather boots and a rugged denim jacket. This combo's a perfect reflection of Saskatchewan's blend of tradition and modern-day cool.

Don't forget, though, that the tutu comes in all shapes and sizes, just like our unique prairie personality. For those with a touch of vintage glam, a full-skirted, romantic tutu, dusted with sequins, and paired with a flowy peasant top will definitely make a statement! On the other hand, for a contemporary vibe, a classic, single-layered, tutu in a vibrant colour like sunshine yellow or bright cobalt blue, teamed with a sleek crop top and edgy sneakers will certainly turn heads.

And let's talk about shoes. Yes, ballet slippers are our bread and butter in the ballet world, but you can take a #tututuesday style on an adventure with any type of shoe imaginable. In Saskatchewan, a pair of classic cowboy boots will elevate the ensemble with an air of pioneer spirit. And trust me, nothing quite complements a romantic, full-skirted tutu like a pair of high-heeled, strappy sandals – you’ll be strutting with a confident swagger that’ll stop traffic on any Saskatchewan street, especially if you’re in a vintage tutu inspired by those dazzling ballet shows we Canadians all love!

So, whether you’re an avid dancer or simply appreciate a bold and feminine style, don’t let the geographical borders hold you back. The prairie winds of Saskatchewan are calling out to every fashionable soul. So come on down, take a twirl in your favourite tutu, and get ready to embrace a unique fashion journey in the heart of Canada, with me on a #tututuesday in South Qu'Appelle. You'll discover a new appreciation for Saskatchewan and learn that tutu style knows no boundaries.

Here are some other #tututuesday style ideas that you can rock in Saskatchewan:

  • Pick a pastel - Choose a pastel colour tutu for a light and airy summery feel in Saskatchewan. Pick lavender to echo the prairie wildflowers. Peach will compliment a Saskatchewan summer sky and blue tutu brings out the natural blue hues in the sky, water and vegetation.
  • Think floral- Floral prints will compliment a Saskatchewan countryside. Imagine a flowy maxi skirt with delicate wildflowers that will accent a beautiful ballet tutu! And a classic romantic ballerina-style tutu looks absolutely gorgeous against the natural beauty of the Saskatchewan landscape.
  • Lace it up- Embrace the sweet romanticism of a lace-detailed tutu. A delicate lace tutu pairs well with prairie fashion’s vintage charm and gives it an authentic Saskatchewan flair, just like a quilt or heirloom dress.
  • Embrace Western boots - Channel your inner prairie girl with classic western boots – there’s no other accessory that screams Canadian as much as a good old cowboy boot. And the beautiful leathers add an element of texture that sets you apart. And those beautiful bright colours available in Western boots are a perfect complement for a light, colourful tutu in an eye-catching color like pink, yellow or coral.

With #tututuesday, you can transform the prairies into a fashionable haven, a stage to show off the unique charm of the tutu, one twirl at a time. You can find so much inspiration in the Saskatchewan landscape and let it inspire your fashion statement!

Happy Tutu Tuesday Saskatchewan!
